Disraeli Ears

So if Juice names Gemma as Tara's killer, will he admit he killed Roosevelt to give his story credibility? Juice is pretty much done for, I think, so why not go to prison in a comfy Administrative Segregation cell?

Yeah, I guess it would be too much of a coincidence for Abel to have killed the birds at the same time someone wrote on the wall. And, if this show tries to be like "Abel did both!" I call BS. There is no way the writing was Abel, crayon or no. Maybe it WAS his babysitter? Maybe she is a double agent or something? I mean, that seems to be the only explanation for why no one heard anything. Right? Oh, wait - this is SOA - nobody ever overhears anything (murders, gun battles) unless the plot needs them to.

Nice shade, Abel...even though I think it was you that massacred Grandma's birds. ETA: I don't think Abel actually realized he was throwing shade - he is too young for that, I think. Chibs - Jesus, Chibs! Quit enabling him! Jax has gone off the deep end. I mean he shot Jury and then turned around and LIED to his club, saying that Jury admitted to being the rat! Bobby has lost some fingers (or a hand) and now Tyler is getting scared (I don't blame him - Jax isn't looking too reliable these days). Nero - I'm afraid for you. Really. I have no idea what Jury telling Jax that his dad may have killed himself will mean. If I were running that school, I would have taken Gemma's little talk with the teacher as a threat of violence. I'd have been "here is your tuition refund...don't let the door hit you on the ass!"

You didn't imagine it - I caught that, as well. I immediately thought "Slash had a TWD cameo??? Awesome!", but didn't do any follow up!

I actually thought Slash seemed to want to talk more, but Mary Lynne whatever and Andrew West talked too much! And I didn't get the feeling that ML was all that much a fan, honestly. And she wasn't funny. Slash wasn't particularly funny, either, but I don't think he was trying to be. Also, it would have been nice to see Bob, but maybe he already has another acting gig and couldn't be on.

Fair enough. But I could also see her being attacked/shot by someone and having a big death scene and dying with her secret (provided Juice dies first); Abel would be a wild card. Or perhaps, as she is dying, she confesses to Jax and he has no recourse.Still, I could see Sutter purposely pissing people off by letting Gemma off. But I don't doubt he will give her plenty of time to show off beforehand.

I may be reading too much into that scene, but I thought that when Marks said "...or any of the Sons," it sounded like he meant not just THE Sons, but Jax's sons, too. As in, Marks would kill anyone Jax loves. Anyway... This whole plan to take out Marks seems like the dumbest thing Jax could ever want to do, but then I thought his plans to ruin Pope were idiotic and everything magically worked out (including saving Tig, who really didn't deserve to be saved). I'm kind of expecting Jax to triumph over Marks in the end, despite the fact that some Podunk motorcycle club would never outsmart and outgun an organization like Marks has. Sutter and Co. will think they are sooooo clever. And Gemma will get off scot-free (i.e., Jax will never find out she killed Tara). Maybe. I could see this happening. I'm not sure why I even watch this show anymore - it's like a train wreck I can't turn away from.

I originally thought what you thought, but I think it was a guy from another charter. Not entirely sure, though. I loved it when Wendy was all "Abel's acting weird" and Gemma just goes "he'll be fiiine." I yelled at my tv: "No, he isn't fine! Are you that deluded?" So will Abel kill Grandma? And Jax - you are so dumb. So. Freakin'. Dumb. Your brothers are literally losing eyes because of your blind rage. I'm guessing Bobby will become leverage? Surely they would have just killed him otherwise.

Haha, FebGirl! I just posted about that on another thread. Of course she's singing "Greensleeves"! ETA: I really like the "Aquarius/Let the Sunshine In" cover from a couple of weeks ago.

And guess what??? According to a Rolling Stone tweet, Katey Sagal will perform a "haunting" version of Greensleeves. Betcha didn't see that one comin'! *eyeroll*

I have never seen Breaking Bad so I don't know who that guy was, but boy was he annoying. Sorry, people who like him! Chad L. Coleman seemed cagey with his answers. I mean he seemed charming, but like he didn't want to fess up to any motivation about why Tyrese really doesn't want to kill people. Which makes me wonder if there is some reason yet to be explained on the show.... Slash next time?! Oh, I used to have a crush on Slash when I was in high school; no longer, as he has been looking kind of frumpy, but still - seeing him takes me back.

My boyfriend and I also use the DVR trick (we usually start watching between 7:15 and 7:30 MT). We even plan our Sunday night dinner to coincide with out TWD watching. I do the same with Sons of Anarchy (he gave up on that show during S5, but I just keep watching....glutton for punishment, I guess). We never watch anything live - except for University of Colorado football games (also, gluttons for punishment LOL).

I thought Conan O'Brien was funny on TTD last week (even if he did talk a bit too much). I usually can't stand him. I also thought the Carol leadership poll was dumb; I don't see Carol as wanting to be the leader at all. She was just doing what she had to do.

Haha, one of my Facebook friends was lamenting the loss of Super Hyundai (with unlimited gas mileage) and I said, "Well, at least we still have Carl's Hat." And I thought it was nice that the Hat got a shout out in the first episode.

Does anyone else think that Maggie might end up preggers? If you remember, they had that discussion back at the prison and they also had some spur-of-the-moment sexy times later in that season. I sure hope they don't do it because I hate the "OMG....let's throw in a pregnancy storyline!" thing that shows love to do. And we've already had one. But Glen and Maggie are so lovey dovey obsessed with each other that I could see them doing something like that. And then Glen would die. Guarantee it.

Laurie Holden was also the female cop in Silent Hill, a horror movie based on the video game. Jon Bernthal was, I believe, Al Capone in Night at the Museum. ETA: Actually, it was the sequel - NATM: Battle of the Smithsonian.

Also: what is the deal with Theo Huxtable? He has been almost mute! I wanna see more Malcolm Jamal Warner action, Sutter!

I had a feeling Juice was going to leave Gemma stranded and that was how she was going to end up at Lea Michele's dumpy truck stop diner. As for LM, what a lame guest stint. Juice. I love him because he seems like a little lost puppy (though he is a criminally murderous puppy). Gemma. Ugh, Gemma. She is horrible. Nero. Did anyone else sense for a second that Jax wasn't sure how to react to Nero's "we've seen how that's worked out!" line, re: him becoming Jax's stepfather. And am remembering wrong or did Gemma admit to Nero that she was partly responsible for JT's death? With that in my mind, I found it funny that Nero basically said "all your mama's men die, Jax!"
